[PATCH] tools/memory-model: update: remove rb-dep, smp_read_barrier_depends, and lockless_dereference

[Alan Stern]

Commit bf28ae562744 ("tools/memory-model: Remove rb-dep,
smp_read_barrier_depends, and lockless_dereference") was accidentally
merged too early, while it was still in RFC form.  This patch adds in
the missing pieces.

Akira pointed out some typos in the original patch, and he noted that
cheatsheet.txt should be updated to indicate how unsuccessful RMW
operations relate to address dependencies.

Andrea pointed out that the macro for rcu_dereference() in linux.def
should now use the "once" annotation instead of "deref".  He also
suggested that the comments should mention commit 5a8897cc7631
("locking/atomics/alpha: Add smp_read_barrier_depends() to
_release()/_relaxed() atomics") as an important precursor, and he
contributed commit cb13b424e986 ("locking/xchg/alpha: Add
unconditional memory barrier to cmpxchg()"), another prerequisite.
